I am the youngest son of Lewis McDermott. I was 10 years old when Dad was killed. I will never forget a month before on my birthday he had made a Western Union phone call wishing me Happy Birthday. This year marks 40 years since his death and the last time I saw him. I have never forgotten the sound of his voice nor his face. I have always been thankful for that and who he was.

Fell With My Brother on December 6th, 1967
Gone is the face, that was loved so dear.....
Silent is the voice, everyone loved to hear.....
Too far away for sight or speech,.....
But not too far for thoughts to reach,.....
Sweet to remember you,.....
Who was once with us here,.....
Although you are absent,.....
You are still very near.

NATIVE AMERICAN PRAYER It is said a man hasn't died as long as he is remembered. This prayer is a way for families, friends and fellow veterans to remember our fallen brothers and sisters. Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning hush, I am the swift, uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight, I am the stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die

Lewis Mc Dermott was killed at the same time my brother David Dickinson was killed. Think of him often and wonder how his family is doing. Time and faith help heal us all, but one never forgets. I know you are loved and missed, as my brother is. Rest well my friend. You are on my mind this and every Memorial Day.
